icmp_error() fails to clear "fragmented" flag

Hi!
Suppose, you have FreeBSD host A behind FreeBSD router R and run
"traceroute -I outerhost 1501" command from A. You will see only "stars"
for first hop. That's because router R erroneously sends ICMP "time exceeded" packets
with "more fragments" flag in the IP header when original packet was fragmented.
This flag is copied from original header.
I've just tested the following patch, it fixes the problem:

(I've discovered this while debugging real-world issue concerning
problems with UDP fragmented traffic while using L2TP tunnel.)
Please review/commit.
